Can you get paid in cryptocurrencies?

I'm curious, can you actually get paid in cryptocurrencies these days? I've heard of people using them for transactions, but I'm not sure if they're widely accepted as a form of payment for wages or services. Is there a growing trend towards using cryptocurrencies as a payment method for work, or is it still mostly limited to niche industries and enthusiasts? Could you explain the current state of cryptocurrency payments and whether or not they're a viable option for receiving payment for work or services?
